It has won Bloomington Gold Certification, the NCRS Top Flight and Duntov Mark of Excellence Awards and has been chosen to the 1996 Bloomington Gold Special Collection.

Those pieces altogether tell just a part of the story, as requesting that bundle moreover needed the purchaser to incorporate the RPO 579D 283/290 HP Rochester fuel-infused humble square V-8, Borg-Warner 4-speed manual transmission and Positraction. This auto in addition has RPO 276 15x5.5-crawl wheels with little-width traveler auto hubcaps with Corvette's “crossed banners” tokens on the middle tops.
